IDE choice

_air_ — Fri, 24 May 2013 09:55:50 GMT

I have a fairly simple project, which I am looking to implement with the FRDM-KL25Z board. The main requirements are:

communicate with other modules over I2C
read and write to an SD card
send messages securely to internet over wifi or 3G, as authenticated SSH or TCP client

It is a low volume commercial application. Although it is fairly simple, I would like highly reliable and supportable firmware. Should I use something like Keil MDK-Lite, or use mbed?

Hi, Air

I think it is better to use IAR or CodeWarrior as IDE for your project development. You can find many example code for your reference from Freescale website. If you want to use real time operation system, I think you can use MQX for your application.

Hope my reply can help you.

Best Regards

Paul

Thanks Paul,

I will put together a VM for CodeWarrior and see what I can do.

Hi Monica,

I have installed CodeWarrior and I am learning how to use it. It seems to be what I need.

Thanks,

Anthony
